FIFTH AVENUE AND 54TH STREET. (MOMA IS ON 53RD BETWEEN FIFTH AND SIXTH.) |
Yesterday afternoon, they went to MOMA (the Museum of Modern Art) where I'm told he really enjoyed himself. Along with a slightly blurry street scene, the Kid Brother also shared a couple of even blurrier photos of his favorite artworks, and a close-up of his own artistic creation inspired by his day at MOMA. Of course, I like his creation the best.
A KID BROTHER ORIGINAL. |
So, now not only can we speak on the phone every weekend (and, hopefully, one of these days on FaceTime), but I can also email a brief note and photo to him every day just to feel connected.
NOW IF THEY COULD JUST GET HIM TO SHOW SOME EXCITEMENT!!! |
If the Kid Brother were to watch this video, he would say, "You're a nut!!!"
Fantastic and heart-warming news!
ReplyDeleteStewart:
DeleteYou were always so kind! Ah, those days bowling with The Kid Brother in tow!
I like chuck's original artwork!
ReplyDeleteanne marie:
DeleteWe've got three of his watercolors framed. He's done some beautiful work.
What fun to be able to stay in touch with him! I had to smile when I saw the PLAID design he made for you!
ReplyDeleteMs Sparrow:
DeleteI thought that plaid was hilarious. Maybe he'll give it to us next time we see him!
Very Nice! I feel your excitement myself... just makes me feel good read this. Sounds like his "family" are very good people.
ReplyDeleteSharon:
DeleteThe people at AHRC are wonderful!
I really like Chuck's painting!!
ReplyDeleteHow cool that you guys are connected by phone/email!!! This is wonderful for you both.
Jim:
DeleteHe's done some beautiful watercolors that we've got framed. So great to have a way to contact him every day. I just wrote a brief note that he should be able to read.
Looks like Chuck inherited some of DD's artistic talent! And he's right - you are a nut.
ReplyDeleteWilma:
DeleteHe would laugh out loud at your "a nut" agreement. Yes, he really does have some artistic talent. I'll have to do another blog post on the paintings we have.
Very cool, and I love his artwork as well. That's a talented Kid brother you there!
ReplyDeleteBob:
DeleteIt's amazing how much more relaxed I am knowing I can send him a picture or brief note whenever I want. He is definitely talented.
Such good people where your brother lives. So glad you guys can stay connected now. He is artistic just like you!
ReplyDeleteCheapchick:
DeleteAHRC really did change his life and the entire family's. A great organization filled with really kind and caring people.
He probably already knows more than me with technology.
ReplyDeletemistress maddie:
DeleteHe has no fear of technology. My mother used to sometimes drive me crazy. "I don't have that button on my printer." "Yes, you do, mom, I set it up and know it's there." "No, I don't. You're mistaken." "Chuck, show her, please!" He'd step over to the printer and voila!
Oh, that's great news! I agree with "Cheapchick"'s comment :) I really like his use of color and all of that :)
ReplyDeleteJudy:
DeleteHe's got a great color sense when it comes to painting and I wish he could teach me how to correctly use and blend watercolors.
How wonderful that now you can feel even closer to your brother.
ReplyDeleteStephen:
DeleteI shouldn't be, but I am surprised at how much more relaxed this makes me. Such a great connection.
Great news.... it really is incredible what we can do these days ... distance isn't what it use to be...
ReplyDeleteWillym:
DeleteIt sure isn't!
How fun. Facebook can't be far off.
ReplyDeleteTravel:
DeleteOh, I think Facebook might be a step too far! But this is more than we ever expected.
Most excellent!
ReplyDeleteMichael:
DeleteYeah, I'm still excited. I love being able to write him a little note every day. I hope he's been able to open what I've sent him. I'll found out Sunday.
now your brother is a man of 21st century
ReplyDeleteGosia:
DeleteAnd he's better at it than Jerry who has never even take a photo with his phone!
That's fantastic! So proud of Chuck and very happy for you both!
ReplyDeleteCarole:
DeleteReally fun for me! And he's more advanced than Jerry now, who still has a dumb (as opposed to a smart) phone!
We always expect they can't do that much, but I see it in my own brother (with Down) they do remarkable things.
ReplyDeletePeter:
DeleteEveryone needs room to spread their wings.
I too marveled at the artistic endeavor of your brother. Good for him !
